ILEA provides basic training to more than 600 Hoosier law enforcement officers annually.
Governor Eric J. Holcomb cut the ribbon on the historic expansion of the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy training facility. Gov. Holcomb was joined by Indiana Law Enforcement Academy Director Timothy Horty and Indiana State Police Superintendent Doug Carter.
“Public safety is foundational to every community, no matter how large or small, and I couldn’t be prouder of the strategic investments we’ve made to modernize and improve law enforcement education throughout all of Indiana,” said Gov. Holcomb. “This new ILEA expansion will provide unique hands-on training to ensure officers are prepped and ready for their jobs ahead.”
ILEA provides basic training to more than 600 Hoosier law enforcement officers annually and is the state’s only residential facility to house student officers who are in training from across the state. Included in the expansion is a scenario-based training village, updated classrooms and training facilities, Indiana State Police offices, emergency vehicle track and a new dormitory.
In 2021 Gov. Holcomb supported new funding for ILEA and signed HEA 1006 into law providing a $70M appropriation. Through this and additional federal funds, ILEA has benefitted from a total of $96M in greatly needed upgrades.
This expansion is the first of its kind since the ILEA campus opened its doors in 1975, allowing Indiana to modernize law enforcement education throughout the state.
With each graduating class, ILEA strives to produce highly trained officers to protect and serve Hoosier communities while continuing to search for the best in contemporary, state-of-the-art instruction. Law enforcement agencies who use the facility include Indiana State Police, Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement Division, Indiana State Excise Police, Indiana Department of Correction, sheriffs’ departments, local police departments, town marshals and more.
